I have a sneaking suspicion that this and the other Persian-GX were originally planned as a tag team, but then split into separate cards.

I have no evidence for any of these, but it’s fun to speculate: could any of these late-SM-era cards have also been tag teams that were sundered in two?
Cobalion GX & Keldeo GX
Alolan Raticate GX & Weavile GX
Carracosta GX & Aerodactyl GX
Thundurus GX & Tornadus GX

Honchkrow GX & Oricorio GX? Eh probably not.
But more serious contenders…. I could see Flygon GX & Dragonite GX being planned, then scrapped. Or possibly Incineroar GX & Hoopa GX.
It’s sus that Dragonite got two separate GX cards in such quick succession! Hmm….

I could definitely see Honchkrow and Weavile being planned as a tag team originally!
Also, maybe Jirachi and Latios? Obviously Latios was always going to get a TT with Latias. But a second psychic type (Gen 3 focus) TT could’ve been planned originally.
